>> well, you know, the obama campaign did both. i mean, tactically, they ran what they've said was basically like a dozen or so governors' races. so, they picked out those important swing states and they ran them on specific issues to the state and then also tactically, i mean, they knew which doors to knock on in such a precise fashion. but the president also talked about the big choice and constantly on the stump talked about the choice in this election, and that was because he didn't want it to be a referendum about his presidency. so, you have to do both, but your point is, of course, right. in the end, it's about those battleground states, and so you have to pay very, very close attention to the local, on-the-ground situation in those states. >> let's talk about the lunch today quickly, because norah and i both were struck by the idea that richard nixon offered hubert humphrey the role of ambassador to the united nations. i mean, is it possible that, somehow, there is in this conversation the possibility of how romney could pl
